Yes, try it out! I should also mention that it supports XML with
stylesheet linking, and has experimental support for:
- the CSS3 namespace proposal [1]
- WML, i.e. a pre-installed CSS style sheet is applied to incoming
WML documents
- Open eBook, i.e. a pre-installed CSS style sheet is applied to
incoming OPF documents [3]

I'm working on documentation for these new features.

CSS3 is being worked on, and documents will follow. However, compared
to the major new functionality that entered CSS2, CSS3 will be smaller
-- more focused on modularizing existing functionality rather than
adding new.
As always, discussions in this group is helpful when moving CSS
forward.
